The exact opposite of what makes this country great.

They offer nothing but hate and intolerance.

We are so lucky to be alive while they made America better. They gave us hope then, they give me hope now.

I want them back!!!! When the blue wave crashes and the GOP scatter like cockroaches when the light is shined on them, I wonder if they will begin to help lead us out of this mess - if even by consulting the new leadership.

We need them so much - putting this shattered America back together again is going to take allot of work. Its amazing how much damage they have done in such a small amount of time.

To the end of my days I say SHAME upon the GOP and those who knowingly tried to kill the good of America for their own greed and power.

May Karma balance in such a profound way that the lessons will never be forgotten.

Notice how they don't speak about THEMSELVES???? Notice how they don't ask if the Obamas are their favorite people? Or do the young people know how SMART the Obamas are?

It's about the young people, their tragedy, and country's conscience.

I miss them.
